| A Shotgun would be first (but certainly not last!) - with the broad ammo selection, you can hunt any game and use it for defense - it covers all the bases.

| I think I would go with a shotgun because you can do so much with it.

| If I could have only one gun it would be an SKS with a folding stock and flame supresser with the cone to divert the blast like the Krinkov,if it works with a 10" barrel it should work with a 16" one. I could carry lots of ammo in stripper clips if on the move.:assult: |

| Its a little confusing. The first gun or the only gun? I like Jay A's answer of the Swede but thats because it one of my favorites. Shotgun would be first. Only gun would be a .45 Colt revolver. |

| If I started all over again I'd start with the mausers. Prices have skyrocketed here for a good mauser. I'd get more Swedes. |
